Greetings All,
I am asking for help.
I've proposed a session for Agile2015 called "Scaling Agile with Open
Space". You can see it below.
If you like this idea of using Open Space inside Agile adoptions, and
want to see this idea spread, your positive support for it in the form
of a brief online comment /can help tremendously now/...
...the Agile conference gets 1500 participants. These folks go back home
and try stuff based on what they hear during the conference.
Adding a comment might take 5 minutes....
.../special thanks/ to those who have commented already! (Suzanne
Daigle!! Harold Shinsato!! )
SCALING AGILE WITH OPEN SPACE
Goal:
* Effectively spread the idea that "rapid and lasting Agile adoptions
can be achieved with the help of Open Space".
Rules:
* It is unclear when the ability to comment ends, so time is of the
essence. ASAP is good!!

* Here is where to make your comment:

*Audience Level: *Advancing
*Room Setup: *Rounds *Duration: *75 minutes
*Keywords: *openSpace, Enterprise Agile
*Abstract:*
Open Space gatherings arranged inside organizations are totally unlike
the Open Space events you may be familiar with during public
conferences. As described in the book SPIRIT from Harrison Owen, Open
Space is actually designed to enable development and transformations in
organizations. This session is about how to leverage Open Space to scale
Agile across the enterprise.
At the root of effective Agile is the self-managed team...a
self-organizing system. At the core of Open Space is the power of
self-organization. In this sense, effective Agile adoptions and Open
Space are very, very similar.
During this session I will present narratives, pictures, videos and
testimony from C-level people as well as team members. Each will
describe how Open Space inside their Agile adoption literally changed
their lives. Of particular interest are the stories executives tell
about how they learned to let go and trust their people to provide
everything the Agile adoption needed to succeed at scale.

yes to open space
Open Space Technology is an ideal process for agile transformations,
and Daniel has been making some great headway in learning how to
apply it to great effect. Hope this makes it to the program.

Open Space and Agile
Dan Mezick is doing some trailblazing work combining Open Space with
Agile. Open Space encompasses the principles of the Agile Manifesto
and with its light yet robust structure, it is bringing people
together in ways that allow people to fully engaged individually and
collectively in the transition and adoption of Agile across the
enterprise. It helps jumpstart a deeper and shared understanding of
Agile that is leading to highly successful implementation outcomes.
The results to date are compelling.

Open Space
Daniel is able to communicate both the science and art associated
with Open Space which is critically important. The concept of
bringing everyone together to work collectively to solve a problem
seems easy enough, but it is the science of the interaction, the
room set-up, the pre-work, and the "what next" that Daniel
articulates very well. Should be an awesome session.
